APP Colornote – Notities terughalen (android)

Informatie (ENG):So I decided to upgrade the custom Android ROM on my HTC HD2 (Leo), and totally forgot about some of the important notes I left in the Android app ColorNote.
Fortunately before I upgraded my ROM, I made a backup using Clockwork Recovery Mod and saved it to my PC.

So I put my forensics hat on and got to work:

The backup consisted of the following files:

1

2

3

4

5

6

7

8

.android_secure.img

boot.img

cache.img

data.img

nandroid.md5

recovery.img

sd-ext.img

system.img

The IMG files are using the Yet Another Flash File System (YAFFS).
A quick Google and I came across this post on the XDA Devs Forums. (Download the attachment to the forum thread) This is a Cygwin ported version of ‘unyaffs’.

Next was to work out which IMG file to use… So I cheated and asked Android guru Noobhands who pointed me at the data.img (Thx dude!).

The ‘unyaffs’ is simple to use:
unyaffs.exe data.img , This extracts the contents of the IMG to the current folder.

Android apps store data in the “data” folder. Having a large number of apps on my Phone, I now had to work out which folder was actually ColorNote.
